Advantages of Deploying SailPoint IdentityIQ Lifecycle Manager

  • The back end process and access request workflow is exceptional. The tool effectively oversees all aspects of a request and sends the complet3d request to the provisioning agents as a single notification. This action is particularly vital to the efficiency of the process as the provisioning agents only reciev3s the final request instead of receiving each component as they are approved.
    While other systems deliver the request components as individual entities to the provisioning agent, LCM sends it’s own as a single entity to promote efficiency
  • The network is expansive enough to handle large scale enterprise requests. Zero performance issues regardless of the number of transaction requests conducted in your enterprise
  • The system is flexible enough to accommodate any complex business needs without customizing the base system. Business owners can add significant functionality to their system in a bid to support the business needs by extending the code rather than altering it. This means you can significantly upgrade the system without having to integrate additional code enhancements.
